Everyone needs a place to relax, right? Now, young students can, easily experience as much stress as adults do. They face competition, interpersonal(人际的)relationships, and personal problems as adults do. But adults have more social experience and can face problems with more self - control. For students，sometimes they have no choice but to rebel(叛逆).
Faced with such a situation, a middle school in Xi'an, northwest China's Shanxi Province recently opened its "mood drain(排泄情绪) room", a place for students to lift their spirits.
The room provides students with classes to guide their mental(心理的 )health development. It also a place for practice where students can express themselves by doing different kinds of activities such as boxing(拳击) or shouting. There are also mental health teachers in the room who help students with questions and also watch their activities for safety reasons.
Designers(设计者) have considered different personalities of students when designing these activities. No matter it's a boy or a girl who shows up. They can put on a pair of boxing gloves to hit a sandbag or shout out loud to relax. A drawing wall and a "writer's and reader' scorner" are for shy students.
"I wish my school had such a room but I would feel a little bit shy going there to shout out loud by myself. I like the room to have different theme activities every week so that I feel more comfortable going there. " said Xingyuan, a Chinese middle school students.
"What matters is that it should be used in a right way，unlike the place where my son goes to cut classes and box against his classmates. It needs to have professional teachers, "said Li, a parent of a middle school student.
